Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

4-5 Chicken Breasts

Put them in a crock pot and cook on high for 4 hours. Save the broth!

1 pkg. Shredded Carrots
1 Large Onion Diced
1 pkg. Celery Diced
2 C. Chicken Stock
1 Tube Concentrated Chicken Broth
1 T. Sage
1 T. Salt
1/2 T. Pepper

Put these items in a large pot and put on stove until vegetables are tender.

1 pkg (12 oz) Noodles. I like to use big fat noodles, but any would work.

Cook these according to package.

Make a roux:
1/2 C butter
1 C flour
Melt the butter in a saucepan and then add flour. Mixture will look gummy, and dry.
Add 2 Cans of Evaporated milk & 1 C. Whole milk & 1 can Cream of Chicken Soup.
 Set aside.

When the chicken is done, shred and put back in crockpot. Add the vegetable mixture. Then add the roux mixture. Taste and make sure it has enough salt, pepper. If it is seasoned well, add the noodles. Do not let it boil after you add the roux!!

I got this recipe from a good friend a long time ago, and have changed a few things, but love the basic concept! Yummy!
